Tiny
Light Brooklyn is known to her family as the “Little Warrior”. She
loves to bounce in her bouncy chair, discover new things and most of
all, laugh and smile.
Brooklyn
was born at 25 weeks gestation and was kept in the hospital for a total
of 115 days. On day two after her birth, doctors informed Brooklyn’s
family that she had a bilateral grade 4 brain bleed with the possibility
of cerebral palsy. It was noted that her condition was severe and that
the outcome was uncertain.
Brooklyn’s
parents state that the hardest part of the journey has been, and
continues to be, the unknown. They are unsure of what Brooklyn’s future
needs will be as she is also at risk for learning disabilities and
developmental delays. Her condition is consistently monitored to ensure
that she has “every possible chance to have the best possible life.”
This
Tiny Light’s will to fight inspires her family and provides them with a
genuine appreciation for the everyday thing. As a message to other
families dealing with similar situations, Brooklyn’s parents say these
little warriors are truly amazing. “Don’t treat them like they are any
different because they will surprise you and they will amaze you with
everything that they do.”
